Instructions

Following manufacturer's directions, use epoxy to glue the threaded plugs to one end of each of the PVC pipes.

On opposite ends of pipes, use epoxy to attach the PVC caps.

Epoxy the wooden rosette onto the cap.

Allow epoxy to dry.

Screw pipe into metal flange. Stand up on it's end in a well covered, well ventilated area.

Paint with primer. Allow to dry according to manufacturer's directions.

Paint gold. Allow to dry overnight.

Find the center of your bed, mark a light line on the wall. Depending on the width of your bed, you will need to attach the flanges lower or higher. If you have someone helping you, it's a good idea to hold the center pipe in place with the fabric, centered, on the pipe. You can then determine how high the center pipe should be and where to place your two side pipes. They can be low or high, depending on your preference. Use measuring tape to assure the three pipes will be symmetrical

Attach the metal flanges to the wall using screws and anchors, using the drill for pilot holes if necessary.
